Reactor and production thereof, reformer, and power supply system including paired channels having a heat exchanger formed thereon

摘要

The present invention is to provide a thin miniaturized reactor for chemical reaction with effective use of heat. The reactor has paired channels formed on a substrate such that the channels extend close to and along each other and are provided with a heat exchanger for efficient heat exchange between the channels. The reactor is produced by forming on substrates the paired channels and heat exchanger and then bonding the substrates together. This manufacturing method is simple and reduces steps.
